Dude GRAPHICS dont make the game GAMEPLAY does thats why more people choose gta sa over 4

There's no reason to get bent out of shape. It's his opinion and he's entitled to it just as you are yours. If he likes IV because of the graphics then that's his choice. I'm no graphics whore myself, but I thought the graphics in GTA IV were stunning. I prefer GTA IV, but for a different reason. I thought the game mechanics were excellent. Pretty much the very reason you hated it I loved it.

Despite being awesome the only problem i had with San Andreas was how many spot on the map were useless and unused. I could have thought of dozen amazing spot that would have fitted for missions modding cars, eating and such are all good to add to realism but it wasn't needed. Anyway my favorite still remain Vice City for the music and story but San andreas is close to it.

My personal favorite (Out of playing GTAIII, Vice City, San Andreas and GTAIV) is GTA San Andreas. It was just so much fun to run around and cause chaos. Now if only there could've been a multiplayer mode without sharing the same screen....BradHummr

I agree, but you cant really cause chaos. You can run about blowing the lifeout of anything that moves but its not causing chaos. It just gets boring after doing it for many hours, and you want to go back to missions. Well thats what I think anyway!! :D But San Andreas is best, I might go and buy Vice City after reading all of this. :D Should I or not, for £4, lol?

I definitely agree with u man, gta san andreas is one of the best to date, the only downfall of course is the graphics but the gameplay and what it has to offer makes up for it, gta iv on the other hand is pretty good also but the city isnt that huge, all the stuff that was featured in gta san andreas they left out in gta iv, its just lacking all the good things that made gta well GREAT lol but nevertheless the multiplayer is kinda fun anyway but san andreas definitely still wins :)

San Andreas by far. The game had so many elements that made it a classic. Most importantly, it's the only GTA game I've played where I actually emotionally invested in the characters, and that's important for any good game. It was actually rather sad when the game was over and there were no more missions to do.

For me, the story was the best of all the series, the characters were the ones most relatable, there were almost endless things to do, a huge map with a good many myths to explore. The actual setting of the game was great, if you're like me and like the whole West Coast feel. Good number of vehicles to drive, good music to listen to, it was quite enjoyable to listen to "Hellraiser" when off on a mission, or listen to Pac or Snoop and Dre.

Can't beat that, honestly, no other GTA game even comes close, in my opinion, San Andreas all the way. Unless Rockstar can bring the SA feel back to the franchise, it's on it's way to a slow death.

This topic is from 4 years ago, but it is a good topic to bump, so there is no need to lock it.

Anyway, my vote goes to GTA V as it is a combination of all the best things from the series (vehicle variety, map size and diversity, customization, aircraft and lots of them, etc) , and I think it deserved a 10/10 so come at me story whores.
